Racist cac didn't change anything up
Man this is why I've been on this kick lately of listening to old rock and soul music from the 50s and 60s and I really wish my fellow brothers and sisters would do the same just to get a sense of where we come from musically. There's so much of the black experience in that music. You can just feel it.

That's why even though he's lived a long life, losing Little Richard is going to hurt because because he's the last of the OGs that laid the foundation of ALL this shyt. RIP and thank you to the TRUE pioneers of modern day music :salute:

Jacked this man's whole steeze:sas2:



Dave: "Did Elvis ever work with you on this song?"

"no he didn't.."

Dave: " So how does his name end up getting on here?"

"That seemed to be the practice at the time.. :mjpls: "

Sad part is that is still the practice, ALWAYS has been.... :pacspit:
